The location at The Neue Galerie, a museum noted for its 20th-century Austrian and German art, sets the tone. Each Thursday evening during the month of April, at 7 p.m., Austrian chef Kurt Gutenbrunner prepares a modern Viennese three-course prix-fixe dinner, which is then followed by a performance at 9 p.m. by a renowned cabaret singer such as scintillating German chanteuse Ute Lemper.
